Corporate Responses to Protecting Children’s Rights in South Africa 2019

In an effort to provide insights and guidance on how businesses protect – or fall short in protecting – children’s rights in South Africa, this report draws on one of Global Child Forum’s essential research products: The Corporate Sector and Children’s Rights Benchmark. 

More specifically, insights are provided across three areas where the corporate sector impacts children’s rights:

• The Workplace
• The Marketplace
• The Community and Environment

In 2015, Global Child Forum, in partnership with Boston Consulting Group, published a benchmark study of the 271 largest companies in the region. This report is a follow-up to that study. An updated benchmark analysis has been conducted on 20 of the region’s largest companies.
